--- Begin Message ---Package: rss2email Version: 1:2.62-3 Severity: normal I run r2e from my crontab. This morning I discovered that it had corrupted its feeds.dat (which I am not attaching, but am happy to send the maintainer privately), and now gives this error to r2e run: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/rss2email/rss2email.py", line 718, in <module> else: run() File "/usr/share/rss2email/rss2email.py", line 462, in run feeds, feedfileObject = load() File "/usr/share/rss2email/rss2email.py", line 418, in load feeds = pickle.load(feedfileObject) cPickle.BadPickleGet: 11 The output from cron the first time it failed said simply: Job r2e run >/dev/null 2>&1 terminated (exit status: 1) A manual check suggests that there have been no new items in my subscribed feeds for at least a couple of days. The machine running my crontab has been up for a while, so wasn't reset recently in the middle of an r2e run, for example. Let me know if I can provide any other information. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.4 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages rss2email depends on: ii python 2.5.2-3 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-feedparser 4.1-11 Universal Feed Parser for Python ii python-support 0.8.4lenny1 automated rebuilding support for P rss2email recommends no packages. rss2email suggests no packages. -- no debconf information

All other actions are definitively crap. Hello, Now r2e can detect when the disk full and will avoid this kind of corruption. It writes the new data file to a temporary file and rename it in an atomic manner: https://github.com/wking/rss2email/commit/466e843e So I believe that this is taken care of. Otherwise, feel free to reopen this bug. Thanks for your report! -- Etienne Millon
